Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:24.0) Gecko/20130529 Firefox/24.0
Build ID: 20130529031131

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Firefox.
2. If Firefox is not fully maximized, maximize it.
3. Go to Tools menu -> Options -> Tabs -> check the box for "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately.
4. Log into your Facebook account and enable the Social API sidebar:
https://www.facebook.com/about/messenger-for-firefox
5. While on Facebook, middle click on any of the images of any post to open it in a new tab.

Expected results:
The post is properly loaded in a new tab.

Actual results:
The content of the page rearranges after the page is completely loaded.

Note:
If the Social API sidebar is disabled, the issue is not reproducible.
Reproducible also on Firefox 21 RC, Firefox 22 beta 3, and latest Aurora 23.0a2.
I'm working on the regression range and I'll post it as soon as I get it.

It's not a regression in Firefox, I wouldn't spend time on that.  This is Facebook adjusting their page content because they detect that their sidebar is loaded, it is out of any control of Firefox or SocialAPI.
Component: SocialAPI → SocialAPI: Providers
